Walkup, of Union, people of the Seventh district, you have a guarantee, that, as jour Representative, he will be faithful to your interest!, faithful to the South, faithful to the Union. All you have lo do is to rally round your standard bearer, and give him the support which is due to him, to yourselves and to your country, for iu sustaining him you arc perpetuating the Union, endangered by the incessant agitation of the question of slavery, whicli,but for Democracy, would now be sleeping the sleep that knows no waking; but which, being necessary to their vitality, in spite of pledges to the contrary they thrust into the counsels of the nation for the manufacture of political capital, regardless of the destruction it is bringing npon the country. In supporting him, you are expressing your 'ConJcmnstion of the sigh-handed and tyrannical 'measures of the Democratic Administration, which hassquindcred the public money, brought ''the power sad influence and patronage of the 'GoveTRmeot into conflict with the freedom of (lections and has not even hesitated to shed the blood of1 your fellow countrymen to obtain ad vantage at an election. , ' Fellow citizens, we have cot the time to say to you all that we wish iu this connection 'to-day, for the Argus must be at press in a few hours ; but this we will say: you "have now presented to yon an - opportunity -of ; showing -your - fealty to the.

That Is what we want that ia what the people want, and not only so in regard to a candidate for the Presidency, but iu regard to members of Congress. We wat.t men whoso education, and moral training, and unexceptional deportment in the general walks of life, will insure them exemption from the ap proach of the tempter in the person of the cor ruptiouist men who dare to do right, and who will, if approached, give the sneaking scoundrels who would propose- to them aught that was dis honoiable such a reception as would furever pre vent their again bringing the contamination of their presence within speaking distance.

Wo find in the Atlanta (Ga.) Ameri can, An article furnishing more proofs of the dis organizing and immoral tendencies of that party, which we give below for the edification of our readers, whether they be Whigs or Democrats : The first witness is lion. Pierre Beule, of Louiaana, a gentleman whose souudnvss in all true Democratic doctrine is undeniable, and the high and ehivalrio tone of whose character command respect every where, In a speech made not long since, to the Louisiana Democracy at Mew Orleuus, we fiuJ the following passages: . 'He mean to disentangle ourselves from the thral dom In which we have been kept for years by an 'tin principled gang of political speculators and blacklegs; aud we are here to vindicate our rights, and exercise the inalienable prerogative of self-government." Now ponder the above language, and eonsider the source whence it ial Reflect upon the unqualified aa ertion it makeal Mr. Soula waa the Minister of this Government at the Court of Spain, and was one of three men instructed to meet at noma place la Europe, and unite in consultation as to our relations with that I'ontineut. He is one of three who signed the famous 0tend Manifesto as the result of that consultation. He has been honored by Louiaiana with a seat in the Senate of the United states. Me ever bas been, and to this day remains, an lullexible Democrat. Now what does this distinguished gentleman, so frequently honored by the Democratic party, soy about that or- gauuatiou.' Listen, "V mean to disentangle ourselves." From a hat Mr. Soule? "Krom the thralJoin in which wf have been kept." What thraldom'.' how kept in-thrnldom ? "The thraldom in which b have been kept for years. Fur yeabb, Mr. Soule? by whom? ' "Yes, sir, roa iis, by an t xraiscirLEn OAxn or roLiTic.ii, apiiXLiToas AND black lius ! and we are here to vindicate our rights, and excrcUe the Inalien able prerogative of self-government. Now. ffllow-citixeus Whig-i. Americans and Dea ocrnts, too just remember who the speaker ia how high ho has stood in the councils of the nation and the confidence of hia party and then carefully con sider the import and siguibcance or the language ne uses. Ho boldly and unqualifiedly asserts that the party and the country have been for years nader the control of an "uuprincipieu gang oi political (pecula tors and gamblers" aud advised those whoal he ad drerses to declare their determination to "vindicate their rights and exercise their Derogative," of which he, and the assemblage be addressed, believed tLey had been deprived.' Alter thus stating the grievance, he goes on to say "That the time has come for ns to assume tiiat posi tion is mide manifest, by the disgust with which the most patient and enduring in our midst have witnessed the scandalous and revolting corruption and foul deal ing introduced in our party proceedings, under the direction and management of the few miscreants who claim absolute control over it." Now, what do our readers tLidk of that? Here is Democrat speaking of his own party. He says their practices liave exhibited aucb "sca.nualocs anil bk volvixo cnanrrioN and rex i. hialiko, under tha di rection and management of a raw viscrsasts," as to demand action on the part of the people, anl that the time has arrived to act. The ltnguage is of the strongest kind is used by one fully aware of its mean ing, and who ia responsible for all he utters. We make the following extract from the Preamble to the Resolutions, to wit: .-,- . .. "Holding in peculiar detestation the employment of Federal pntronage and Federal power to influence or control political results in the several Sutra of the Luiun, for the beueht of individuals or of factions, they proclaim undying oppositiun alike to such influ ences, and the evil disposed, venal and bad. men by whom it' is originated, defended, or upheld." What "Federal patronage and Federal power" have been used t influence or control political results iu the Union? Why, none but Democratic, for no other party but that, has had power any length of time for uiauy years past. What "evil disposed, venal and bad men" have been so situated as to "originate" measures that were corrupt in order that power might be perpetuated in their own "venal and corrupt clique? Mr. Soule and the meeting he addressed were Democratic the present federal "powers tnul be areralso -Democratic end-fcenee-tliis bo,d am open denunciation of a Democratic Adniiaintration anl of Democratic policy and corruption, by members of the party! Is not this inharmonious ? Is not this a tendency to disorganisation ? And is. net the whole action, the denunciation and the threatened disorgam- zjlion, consequent tipen "scandalous and revolting corruption- and- font dealing" by "miscreants' ' for years? "Miscreants" controlling a party for years whose business it has been "to woo but to ruin, to win bat to destroy. And these "miscreants are "evil disposed, vtnal and bad men," in the dominant pnrty. There is qo doging as to who- and what party is meant, for it has been the boast of the Democracy that the country has been ruled by it for yeijrs. . So Mr. Soule means the Democracy, and the language employed must be taken fur just what and all it im ports. The Charleston Mercury says: "The existing organization called the Government of the Cnited States, with its abolition agitation and destinies, although no more like the Government es tablishing by the Constitution than the Roman Re public under Augustus Cicsar was like the Roman Re public under Scipio, will struggle hardforit perpetuity. Nothing but instinct of self-preservation, or the higher impulse of liberty in the southern people can over throw it. Dot the contest is inevitable or it hat been gathering head for thirty yean.' All these sectional animosities all the extrava gance all the Federal interference with the internal affairs of the States all the intermeddling with State elections, and all the deep, damning and widespread corruption, created by a "few miscreants'' of the Democrasic: party, have "been gathering head fur thirty years!" Not only has disorganization com menced, as the passing events of the day fully demon strate, but, verily, Democratic testimony of tbe high est uigntty, in reterence to the ' 'scandalous and re volting corruption, and foul dealing" of the self styled Democratic party, and such pestilent demorali xation ts all this too plainly proves, places the neces sity of its dieorganiiation beyond a donbt. The peo ple uemanu ana wm consummate it. Disorganisation of parties, and a re-organiiation, is determined upon and will be effected.

H9 We give below a capital article, from the Dallas (Ala.) Gaietta, upon the oft-discussed theme of " Southern rights." The Gazttu waa formerly one of the most aealous of the "fire eat ers," and ia published in a locality where the m sealous Southern sectionalism onoe most brightly flamed. In the language of the Mobile Adver tiser, we " hail this remarkable change ot posi tion, so frankly acknowledged by the Gazette, a a cheering sign of the progress and development of sound, conservative sentiments in the South." Let no reader fail to peruse the article : Soi'tubbh Riiiiin. We ar not going to trouble our readers, as they msy suppose from the beading, with a long dissertation on the wronga of the South, for the belief Is penetrating to onr brain, thiough rather a thick skull, that moat of the wrongs we have I tretofora oomplalned pf have been imaginary, or at least, the 8outh has not,' at W, suffered any serious injury by the agitation of the slavery question at the North, nj matter what anticipation we may have of future mischief, as the effect of measure already passed. The South may suffer hereafter, It is true, but w do not know that she will, and as we are in doubt on that point, w mil back oh the scriptural in junction, "sufficient for the day of evil thereof." We are however, assured or on thing, that the more noise tbe South makes ther-mor fuel she throws the flam kindled by Seward, Hale, Sumnes, and others, the more likely she is to suffer here after. This is our honest and. candid opinion, pred icated upon personal experience? and' ths past his tory of the country. We admit that we have thought differently until about a year since, but a fair and unprejudiced review of the various measures that have agitated the North and the South for the last ten years and the rftct thty have had upvn butk seetum, of the I'niin, both for and against the South, have produced a complete revolution in our sentiments, not because any love for the I'niou has been revived in our heart, but simply because our love for the South has increased with years, and we believe it would be to her interest to change her poller entirely, and instead or threatening secession or revolution or de manding that Congress should protect slavery in the Territories, or should not or declaring that no Black Republican President shall rule over the South or resolving that Douglas shall be beaten if he is the nominee of the Charleston Convention, or swearing to any other hostile measure w say, if instead of all this, she would declare that it waa beneath her digni ty to discuss the question of slavery hereafter with the Northern people if our members to Congress would be silent on that question, instead of making "Damnum speeches to "empty benches, just for the purpose of scattering them among their constitu ents for their own elorification if agitation ehoaid altogether cease at the South, it would die out at the florin entirely, and such men as Wilson, Sumner, Chase and others, deprived of their political capital, would sink into an obscurity so profound "that the hand of resurrection would never rach item. Some people may say that, in takin g this position, we are inconsistent, but we wi 1 reply 1 n language of me old adage, "thatany fool can be consistent. ne will also say to such, that if they will lay aside all their prejudices and study tbe whole question calmly its history all we believe tbey will agree with ns. Or, if they will honor us by reading our future ar ticles on the subject (for we shall "not stop with thi.-1 they will, we doubt not, do us tbe justice to admit that we art influenced by what we believe to be good reasons. Oar readers hare perhaps all read the old wolf story. To refresh their memories we will copy lr:" "A certain shepherd's boy kept his sheep npon a common and in sport and wantonness would often cry out, the wolf, the wolf. By this menus, be several times drew the hnsbsndmm in an adjoining field from their work; who, finding themselves deluded, resolved for the future to take no notice of his alarm. Soon after, the wolf came indeed. The boy cried out iu earnest; but no heed being given to bis cries, the sheep wer devoured by 'the wolf." How often have the Southern writers snd talkers dried "wolf!, wolf!" in the last twelve years? We will try aud enumerate them: 1st. In 1816 or '-17, when Wilmot offered bis famous proviso. Each political party at the South tried to out-lierod the other in passing secession, or revolu tionary resolutions, which fell to the ground. ' The masses were terribly alarmed at the ery ef J'wolli' but no wolf came. i 21. In the winter of lM9-'60, when both parties again out-IIeroded the other in resolving to bold a Southern Convention'when Mississippi greeted Vir-ginia--Oeorgia greeted Alabama, and South Carolina remained modestly ia the back ground, determined to follow her Kauthern siscers-. It was then that Koote, Clemens, Milliard, Toombs, and others, shouted lustily, "wolf! wolf!" but no weif earner- For reasons bent known to themselves, they turned on their own bantling, the Nashville Convention, and crushed it. The people were then ready to meet tbe wolf, but these men, like the shepherd s boy in the fable, turned to them and said it was all a joke, for there was n wolf, : 3d. In 1851, when the question of secession nut presented to tbe people, in opposition tu the compro mise measures, theory or "wolf' was then raised in good earnest, but as the people did not feel any practical injury from the effects of the compromise, they decided positire'y that there was no wolf, and so very decidedly, that those who had raised the cry i wuu a nw exceptions) sought shelter in a re-orzui. ration of the old parties. 4th. In the Kansas question, in all its pha., the cry of "wolf has been raised, but more recently by those who have heretofore tiken pleasure in de nouncing as traitors those who have advocated the rights of the South as tanmount to those of tbe i. Dion. We have shown, that the crv of wolf has been raised so often that the people car no attention to it. and we fear they have grown so indifferent that, if any real and practical danger should arise hereafter (which we are disposed to doubt) we may shout Wolf " Wolf!" in Tnin Tut' Union Tbe Union what ia it? heritage purchased by the aaored blood of out forofuthcrs, bequeathed to us as the uobleat leg. acy of venerated sires. Every link of that holy bond ia but part of our national existence. W live by it, fight for it, uphold it by all that ia moat valued, and when dying glory in the thought that it shall be handed down to our children, even unto the third and fourth generations. What signify the puny blustering and un meaning words of sclf-auibitious domagogucs wrong in sentiment, dishonest in purpose, and powerless withal when they rail out, with por tentous forebodings and invectives, against tbe Union f We para them by as the idle wtnds. ' Little do they know their weakness, much less do they comprehend tbe great throbbing heart of a free people, who fancy it is for them to dictate sundering of our social compact If the time should arrive for so momentum a subject to be contemplated setiously, all such gasconaders traitors if you please however high in author ity, would be hurled from their places and scat tered like chaff before the wind. The strong arm of power, wielded by innate common sense, urged on by the latent patriotio fire which dwells in the multitude, Is ever ready to stretch forth in defence of that holy confederacy. f Fanatical Abolitionists of the North, or erratic extremists in -the South, would find themselves few in numbers and insipid in power, did a pe- liod arrive of ubsolute necessity for the mighty masses of our countrymen to rise up in vindica tion of their inalienable rights vouchsafed to them by this republican Union. Let our Uuion be really endungercd, eitlnr from internal or external usurpations, insomuch as to demand extraordinary guardianship, and millious with one common impulse will rush simultaneously to the rescue. No respect of per son or sentimental sympathy need be hoped for those, either high or low, who institute treachery towards this sacred bond. . Mere sclf-aggr.mdiiing politicians, aspirants for position and spoils, hypocrites at heart, though seemingly sincere Abolitionists, fire-eaters and fanatics may vociferate high-sounding words and hurl denunciations, united wkh terrible threats, against those with whom they cannot affiliate in sentiment; yet there is a power in the people, honest enough, to assert, aaj atiaar enougn to preserve tne L mors agonist all aucb' assaults. We shall never, therefore, enteruir apprehensions of its dissolution whilst so many. honeit yeomanry are at hand ready and willing, impelled by love of country, to stiiJefur its pro tection. in vain The truth is, when the Southern neorle look around them and see that they still enjoy their land and ne groesthat heaven has smiled propitiously upon and blessed them that tbe generous soil has yielded- a heavy harvest and that their produce bas commanded for ten years higher snd mon -regvlar- prices than they ever did before, can any sane man believe they will risk the blessings they enjoy for the purpose of encouraging measures that may lead to civil war, be cause enthusiasts or demagogues tell them to gird on uieir armor ami ngnt sgainst anticipatea evils, or in favor of a string of absrtoctions so contradictory and impracticable, that it would puizle the shrewdest metaphysician of the age to expound them ? tKg" The Mobile Register, a Dcmociatic paper and organ of the party, alluding to remarks made by the Pennsylcaniitn, one of tbe President's Pennsylvania org ins, in relation to the corres pondence of Mr. Forsyth with Government, aud its publication in time for the next Congress, says : "When it it published, if it dpes. not 'sustain the ap. peal Mr. V. has already. mad to ii, 8r. .tin truth of me i acts ne nas siaieu, we sne.ii n roauy in nanus that that gentleman deserves all the spiteful things now said of him by the President's toady newspapers.

We are Indebted to the Charleston Courier's tel egraphic dispatches for the following details of the foreign news brought by the Anglo-Saxon, which ar rived at Quebec on the lHth with Liverpool dates to June 8:. , , , A bloody battle between the Austrians and French has been fought at Magenta, near Milan, In which tha Austrians wen defeated with a loss of 25,000 men, killed, wonnded and prisoners.
